Tips from image consultants for middle-aged women

THE BEST ADVICE

This article explains what middle-aged women need to know about modern style. The relevant tips for hair, wardrobe and shoes.

MIDDLE-AGED WOMEN

Middle-aged women, ages 35 to 65, can learn a lot about style from a trained image consultant. This is especially important for this age group because at this point in their lives they have ingrained dressing habits and are usually more or less resistant to change. What a pity! Because an image consultant, in the space of three hours, can change her appearance and give her new glamour, dynamism and style.

Now, you wouldn’t know it, the three areas where a consultant can help you the most are the three areas where you already have your strongest opinions. Without worries. Just sit back, relax, and let us introduce you to a few secrets that can make things 100 percent better. The fact is, if you’re like most girls this age, your hair needs help, your wardrobe is boring, and your shoes… oh, we’ve got work to do!

SECRETS FOR HAIR

Your greatest asset is your hair. Believe it or not, people see it first and remember it the longest. If you want beautiful hair, study a married woman in her mid-twenties. They usually have the most beautiful hair because they work on it. They really care about it, and they keep it up. If you want beautiful hair, and who doesn’t! – You have to try a little. We image consultants insist on this all the time because it’s so true.

One secret is to use a conditioner with dimethicone. Another is to get a haircut every six weeks to fix frayed ends. Yet another secret is to get a new hairstyle from time to time. Finally, she carries a small mirror to check her appearance and make sure she doesn’t have loose hair before meeting with friends and family.

Our latest hair secret will blow your mind, but that’s what we’re here for, right? You have to try some retro styles like a beehive or bouffant look. Men will go crazy for you if you have the nerve to do something so different.

CLOSET SECRETS

The biggest mistake women make as they get older is that they tend to wear more patterns. Women become more artistic as they get older and think that they need to have art on their clothes, in the form of prints. Please resist the temptation. Solids are sexy, prints are not. And if you don’t think a woman your age can be sexy, check out Suzanne Somers.

“Oh, but friends and family compliment me when I wear patterns,” you say? I hate to break your illusions, but the people close to you probably want to avoid hurting your feelings because they love you. You’re better off talking to an objective image consultant who has no ulterior motives. Unlike friends and family, a consultant will tell you the honest truth.

So now the solids are starting to look a little better?… We hope so!

SHOE SECRETS

If you’re like most middle-aged women, your shoes are a problem because you wear heels that are too high or slip-ons that are too old. This season, a very cute shoe is the ankle boot. In casual situations, if you want to appeal to men, this is the shoe to die for. Another good option is unisex sneakers with white laces. Even better than that, wear open toes and heels for cocktail parties and nights out on the town. You will attract attention.

Keep in mind that if you’re a lawyer, banker, or white-collar worker, shoe tips will be totally different for your work environment. For business, never wear ankle boots. (But you knew that, right?) At work, opt for dark shoes, not shoes that match your lighter outfits.

We want you to look your best and make a good impression, and following these simple guidelines will help you do just that.
